Militants in Syria fire 3 rockets toward Israel: Army

[ad_1]
Jerusalem: Militants in Syria fired three rockets toward northern Israel on Saturday night, Israel’s military said, in a rare attack from Syria amid escalating tension in the region.
According to a statement released by the army, only one of the rockets crossed into the Israeli-annexed Golan Heights and landed in an open area, Xinhua news agency reported.
It triggered sirens in the northern community of Moshav Meitsar, however, there were no immediate reports of injuries or damage.

The Israeli army on Thursday and Friday struck southern Lebanon and Gaza Strip as Israel accused Hamas and other militant groups of being responsible for firing dozens of rockets at Israel.
The latest tension was triggered by Israeli raids of the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, Muslims’ third holiest site, during a sensitive holiday time as Muslims were observing the holy month of Ramadan with prayers at the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound and Jews were commemorating the Passover holiday.

Baghdad: Five Islamic State (IS) militants were killed in airstrikes in Iraq’s eastern province of Diyala, the Iraqi military said.
Based on intelligence reports, Iraqi warplanes carried out two airstrikes on IS hideouts in the mountainous area of Narin near the Himreen mountain range of northern Diyala, destroying the hideouts and killing five IS militants, Xinhua news agency reported, citing a statement issued by the Security Media Cell, a media outlet affiliated with the Iraqi Joint Operations Command.
Despite repeated military operations against IS remnants, extremist militants are still hiding in deserts and the Himreen mountains in the provinces of Diyala, Salahuddin, and Kirkuk.

Since the defeat of the IS in 2017, the remnants of the extremist group have melted into urban centers, deserts, and mountainous areas, carrying out frequent guerilla attacks against security forces and civilians.

Punishing Kins Of Militants Against Natural Justice: Omar Abdullah

[ad_1]
SRINAGAR: National Conference leader Omar Abdullah Monday said that his party does not believe in the idea of punishing the relatives of militants as it is against natural justice.
He refuted the allegations that previous governments provided jobs to militants. “We did not punish a father for the misdeeds of his son. National Conference will never support a policy that is against natural justice,” Omar said while talking to reporters on the sidelines of a public rally.
Responding to a question on Manoj Sinha’s allegations that previous governments gave jobs to militants, Omar Abdullah said, “We didn’t punish people because they were relatives of militants. Is it fair for me to punish you for the crime committed by your father or a son? Tomorrow, if God forbid a close relative of Manoj Sinha Sahab commits a crime, should he be sent to jail?” Omar Abdullah questioned.
Omar said that nobody is supporting or advocating that militants should be given government jobs but at the same time relatives of militants should not be targeted.
He also castigated the government for bringing a blacklisted recruiting job agency to Jammu and Kashmir. “The present government is playing with the future of youth. We want an inquiry on how APTECH, which is blacklisted across the country, was given a contract and where the scams had taken place.”
He alleged that the present dispensation likes to misuse the police and use of police force against the civilian population is really bad. [KNT]
